WASHINGTON, United States — In the second indictment stemming from a sweeping case that appears to align with explosive allegations made this week by Canada’s Prime Minister, U.S.
One would fully expect the RCMP to make public statements about this matter and I think they should. Like CSIS it's literally their job to highlight risks to the Canadian people. I suspect the timing was in respect to the Americans announcement, so that Canada could have cover by the Americans actions instead of going it alone.
In terms of geopolitical realpolitic, the quote from Thucydides comes to mind " the strong do what they can and the weak suffer what they must". India is playing it's hand as an aspiring great power might. They know, irrespective of what the current Indian government does, they will always be able to negotiate with the Americans, as the Americans fear pushing India to align more with Russia or China.
Canada, being at best a middle power, has no such leverage. Trudeau can only attempt to make domestic political hay, perhaps weighing Muslim versus Hindu versus Sikh community responses. The previous criticism of Trudeau by India was the belief he was managing voter pools. In light of Melanie Joly's alleged recent statements to Tom Mulcair this is entirely possible.
Knowing they can effect relatively little, the Trudeau government can only make righteous pronouncements about an international rules based order which are at best sentiments for the Liberal urban voter base who don't know of, or wish to contemplate, the Thucydides Trap. Problem is, they undermined the credibility of this position by their highly compromised handling of China.
We (US/Canada) would not be in this disastrous predicament if these aliens/migrants/illegals/immigrants etc. were shut down from inception. Using Canada as an example, no protesting or demonstrating other countries political/religious rhetoric- NONE on Canadian soil. The ONLY flag flown is Canadian 🇨🇦 and ONLY “Canadian” issues permitted for protest. More rigorous vetting of immigrants.
Haven’t heard a word about this down here. Shocker really. Modi is a POS. He glad hands everyone while sticking knives into their backs. I highly doubt he’s going to get away with this shit when Trump gets back in. I’d suggest things will be much different looking in 4 years from now.
